Walking into the museum, we were given a brochure to guide us to the various exhibits. I saw a few students. I didn’t expect to see the crowd we had seen in Paris. We were standing in front of a painting by Goya titled Saturn Devouring his Son. “Armand, that is a horrible painting.” “It is unusual, and Goya was inspired by Rueben’s painting of the same theme.” “I’m not sure I would like that painting. It is grotesque.” “A Greek myth inspired this painting. Saturn was told tha

Then you can see these countries though Armand's eyes and experiences. Pretend you are Colin.
-
Yes, I did as well. But this place is close to tourists attractions. Armand did it as a joke since Colin was so hungry
-
Colin was quite surprised. The place was close to the Palace which attracts a lot of visitors
-
I wonder what Colin will think when he see's a particular Goya painting
-
Be sure to go to a restaurant that serves Paella. If you have time tour the Palace
-
Yes it is like having a personal tour guide
-
I think this adventure will be a little different than Paris.
-
Yes, that was where I first had Paella. Every time I was in Spain I made sure I had it..
-
So far Armand is not known. But there stay just got stated
-
They also have the largest palace in Europe and the King and Queen occupy that palace

We were awake at 6 in the morning, and our taxi would be here at 8 to take us to the airport. Our flight was at 9, which would get us into Madrid a little after 11. By the time we got to our hotel, it would be close to noon. "Are we staying at someone's home in Madrid?" "No, I wasn't able to contact my host from the last time I was here. We will stay at a hotel, and we can get our laundry done there as well." Our hotel was the Westin Palace Hotel across from Plaza Mayor, which wa

Yes Madrid and a touch of Spain.
-
I think you are correct. Better than postcards.
-
I hope their paintings are never in the loo, isn't that the English word for bathroom? 😄 I knew you meant the Louvre museum. You should go to Paris. It's a vibrant city but take someone with you
-
Thanks Tony. St. Patrick's Day was observed traditionally, corn beef and cabbage
-
Thank you. Your comments are important to me
-
Possible, more likely make them tired, i.e. Armand decline to race to the tower
-
You are absolutely right about the height. I was invited to a dinner at the Tower, the dinner was great but getting there wasn't. I suffer from acrophobia and it was a battle to for me to go to that dinner.
-
There will be a lot of surprises when they connect Armand and Arrow
-
Who knows what will happen. Armand is sensitive to Colin's interest as he was interested in the sculpture and ancient artifacts.
-
Yes, Spain. Colin is enjoying the trip so far. We will see what he thinks of Spain
-
I'm sure there are quite a few private collectors. Every once in a while you'll see a museum offering a collection by so and so with a thanks to someone.. You know that the paintings belong to a private collector. If he had told Mr. Arnaud that the painting was his grandmother's, he may have put himself in a position to identify Arrow.

Arriving at the center of Paris, we said goodbye to the Director, thanking him for the ride. Walking back to Madam Lavigne’s house, “What are we going to do tomorrow?” “We are going back to the Eiffel Tower for lunch and taking a dinner boat ride on the Seine. No more art museums and tomorrow will be our last day in Paris.” That evening I told Madam Lavigne that tomorrow would be our last day in Paris. I told her we would be taking the dinner cruise on the Seine, and we would like her
